WACO, Texas - With the 4th of July mercury hitting a high of 101 degrees in Waco, Baylor football fans who have been waiting for the right time to purchase their 2011 season football tickets may wish to do so this week, as all season tickets outside Floyd Casey Stadium's premium seating sections are priced at $101 each.

"There is tremendous anticipation for the Bears' 2011 season, and we are grateful for those fans who already have purchased season tickets," said Baylor Executive Associate Athletics Director/External Affairs Nick Joos.
